Tranquil lifestyle within driving distance of small cities

While there have been many legends about how Slaughterville got its name, the history behind it is much more innocent than it seems. Slaughterville originated from a small business in the area owned by Jim Slaughter. Situated at the intersection of Highway 77 and Slaughterville Road, it became known as ‘Slaughter’s Corner.’ When Slaughterville was founded in 1970, residents voted to keep the name to make the town recognizable. Throughout its short history, locals have made an ongoing effort to retain a tranquil lifestyle. “It has that tight-knit community feel to it, and a lot of people put down roots there,” says Rhonda Simmons, Realtor with Sunshine Realty, who has more than 20 years of experience selling in the area. “People looking to move out of the city are drawn to the seclusion, but you still have access to Highway 77 and Interstate 35 to get to Norman and Purcell.”

Homes with sprawling farmland

Houses swing the pendulum from manufactured homes to Cape Cods, new traditional and ranch homes. While the styles available in Slaughterville are varied, the common denominator among the properties is land. Neighbors may be separated for miles along the area’s narrow country roads. People can step out on their covered front and back porches to take in views of spacious farmland or thickets of trees. Homeowners have used the space for in-ground pools, horse barns, chicken coops and pastures ripe for farming. A two-bedroom to four-bedroom home on one to two acres can sell for $220,000 to $265,000. On the other end of the spectrum, gated houses developed on sprawling 50-acre lots with equestrian facilities exceed the $1 million mark.

Plans in the work for Slaughterville Park additions

Spanning about 8 acres, Slaughterville Park has a half-mile trail where locals can take a peaceful walk or bike ride. Exercise stations and benches are also dotted along the paved pathway. The fenced-in park opened in 2019 and features a covered pavilion with picnic tables where neighbors and friends can gather. Plans are in the works to add a playground, community center, soccer and football fields and a disc golf course.

Century-old store selling fresh produce and cattle feed

Retail is scarce in Slaughterville, with tire and auto repair shops, an ATM and a Dollar General near the intersection of Slaughterville Road and Highway 77. While many residents head nearly 8.5 miles south to the Walmart in Purcell for grocery essentials, Simmons says, “Maguire Store is also nearby and has been a staple in the area for more than 100 years.” Over the last century, the store has been used as a meeting hall for community organizations, a polling place and a post office. Today, the owners sell everything from fresh produce to plants and cattle feed. People can stop by on Saturday nights for made-from-scratch pizzas. Tacos, sandwiches, milkshakes and ice cream are also on the menu.

Noble schools seeing significant upgrades

Students may be zoned for Noble Public Schools. They will filter through three elementary schools serving prekindergarten through fifth grades, including Katherine I. Dailey Elementary, John K. Hubbard Elementary and Pioneer Intermediate Elementary schools. Katherine I. Dailey and John K. Hubbard Elementary received a B rating from Niche, while Pioneer Intermediate Elementary School earned a B-plus overall. After attending Curtis Inge Middle School, which gets a B from Niche, students filter into Noble High School. In 2019, the school got a significant upgrade in the form of a new fine arts auditorium and gym. The multimillion-dollar project known as ‘The Den’ offers nearly double the seating capacity of the old buildings so the school can host tournaments, concerts and other events. Noble High School also received a B-minus rating from Niche.

Feel the grapes between your toes

Canadian River Vineyard and Winery owners took advantage of the ample farmland and fields in Slaughterville. The scenic venue hosts tastings and tours throughout the year. Neighbors can also get together at the venue for bingo nights one weekend a month. In September, residents get together for the Grape Stomp Festival, which features food trucks, vendors, wine tastings and live music.
